Depression Painting For Sale on 1stDibs

You are likely to find exactly the depression painting you’re looking for on 1stDibs, as there is a broad range for sale. Find Contemporary versions now, or shop for Contemporary creations for a more modern example of these cherished works. If you’re looking for a depression painting from a specific time period, our collection is diverse and broad-ranging, and you’ll find at least one that dates back to the 20th Century while another version may have been produced as recently as the 21st Century. When looking for the right depression painting for your space, you can search on 1stDibs by color — popular works were created in bold and neutral palettes with elements of gray, black, beige and brown. A depression painting from Daniel Ralph Celentano, Michael Loew, Ernest Hamlin Baker, Louis Bouché and Adolf Dehn — each of whom created distinctive versions of this kind of work — is worth considering. Artworks like these of any era or style can make for thoughtful decor in any space, but a selection from our variety of those made in paint, canvas and fabric can add an especially memorable touch. A large depression painting can prove too dominant for some spaces — a smaller depression painting, measuring 11.75 high and 7.5 wide, may better suit your needs.
